Schism and the Restoration Church
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 07 April 2011
Extract
I cannot but take my selfe to be particularly concerned both in duty, and conscience, when I see the peace, order and union of the church over which God hath sett me, broken, and divisions come to that degree that learned Camero calls the highest, and schisme [sic] even when those that hold communion with us, not onely depart from our communion, but alsoe sett upp and use prayers, preaching and sacraments apart, and at the same time that we doe, and in the same Towne.

3 In 1682 an Oxfordshire rector reported his fruitless conversation with a Quaker from his parish: ‘Att last I desired him seriously to consider of it as a weighty business, which concerned the welfare of his soule; that schisme is a worke of the flesh and excludes from the kingdome of heaven; and that without sin he could not seperate from the church of England, unless he could prove the said church to be idolatrous or teach any doctrine contrary to the word of God; to which he said nothing to the purpose, but returned againe to his conscience’: Bishop Fell and Nonconformity, ed. M. Clapinson (Oxfordshire Record Society lii, 1980), 31.

13 In the opinion of the Anglicans many of these Protestants were heretical as well as schismatical. Schism is a breach of the unity of the Church, while herey is a breach of the faith of the Church, thus heretics must be schismatics but schismatics need not be heretics.

61 Grove, , in Cases, 7.Google Scholar The dissenters rarely stated their case so succinctly, and often they confused the issue by not distinguishing the scruples of dissenting laymen from the difficulties which faced nonconformist clergy in subscribing to the Established Church as clergymen; see Baxter, Richard, Reliquiae Baxtenanae, ed.
